Democrats cannot pass blame for Obamacare

Obamacare was passed through the U.S. Congress with every Democrat voting for it. Every Democrat that I know supported it. They all assured me that anyone who wanted to could keep his current health insurance policy. I also was told that I could keep my doctor and that my insurance would go down $2,500.
All the Democratic candidates running for Congress in our district and Bruce Braley supported Obamacare. If you are a low-information voter, part of the faculty lounge, or a self-appointed progressive, please hang in there with Obamacare. Remember that it was your wonderful intentions that gave us your social engineering mess with our national health care. Just because you and the president lied about almost every aspect of ObamaDemocratCare is nothing to worry about.
Good luck blaming Bush this time around.
